history

family tree

In 1899, Duisburger FK was founded in 1899 , which four years later merged with SV Viktoria Duisburg, founded in 1893, to form Duisburger SV Viktoria . In August 1921 there was a merger with Duisburger TV von 1848 and SV Borussia Duisburg to form Duisburger TSV 1848 . SV Borussia, also known as "Turn-Borussia", was created in March 1921 through the merger of SV Borussia Rheinhausen and the Duisburg gymnastics community for adults . As part of the clean divorce in 1923, there was a split into the Duisburger TSV 1899 and the Duisburger TV 1848 . Both clubs merged again in 1938 to form TuS Duisburg 48/99 . Between 1943 and 1945 the TuS 48/99 formed a war syndicate with the later merger partner Duisburger SpV.

Until World War II

The Duisburg TSV 1899 was immediately included in the newly created Gauliga Niederrhein . In terms of sport, the team was mostly to be found in the middle of the table and in 1928 was just able to avoid relegation. It was not until the 1932/33 season that the team went up in terms of sport, when they won the relay championship with a 2-1 win in the decider against local rivals FV 08 . The two finals for the Lower Rhine Championship against Hamborn 07 were clearly lost.

Due to the sporting success, TSV was accepted into the newly created Gauliga Niederrhein in 1933 and took fourth place in the first season . Defender Willy Busch took part with the German national team in the 1934 World Cup in Italy , where the DFB-Elf took third place. A year later, the TSV rose from the Gauliga. At the end of the season, only one point was missing from Preussen Krefeld . Already in 1936 they were promoted again, when the team did not lose points in the promotion round against VfB Mülheim and SpVg Odenkirchen .

Back in the upper house, the Duisburg team immediately became runner-up, one point behind Fortuna Düsseldorf . After the merger to form TuS 48/99, the team quickly slipped back into mediocrity and took eighth place three times in a row between 1939 and 1941, which still secured relegation. In the 1941/42 season the TuS was again runner-up, this time behind Hamborn 07. In those years, the future “football god” Toni Turek , who hired TuS in 1938, was in the gate from time to time. After the TuS had entered into a war syndicate with the Spielverein (KSG), this secured the last Lower Rhine Gaume Championship in 1944 . In the final round of the German championship, the KSG failed in the quarter-finals at the Luftwaffe-Sportverein Hamburg .

post war period

After the end of the war in 1947, the newly created Oberliga West was missed. In 1954, the TuS was champion of his national league relay, but failed in the Lower Rhine championship at VfL Benrath . Two years later, the team qualified for the newly created Association League Niederrhein , whose champions it was in 1959 . In the promotion round to the II. Division the Duisburg prevailed against the Bonner SC and the SpVg Beckum . The TuS also took part in the German Amateur Championship . After a 3-1 win over SV Norden-Nordwest from Berlin, Duisburg was eliminated in the semifinals with a 2-1 defeat after extra time against Arminia Hannover .

As runner-up in the 1962/63 season behind VfB Bottrop tied on points, TuS qualified for the newly created Regionalliga West . From this the TuS rose again as the severed penultimate. Some home games were not played in the Fugmann-Kampfbahn , as usual , but in the Grotenburg Stadium in Krefeld to avoid competition from the Duisburg clubs. The Krefeld amateur clubs appealed to the association because they feared that they would lose spectators. The TuS initially threatened to return the license and then aimed for a merger with Preussen Krefeld . In the end, the Duisburg team received approval to play in Krefeld.

During the season, those responsible held merger talks with the Duisburger Spielverein, FV 08 and DSC 1900 . Finally, on July 1, 1964, the TuS merged with the game club to form Eintracht Duisburg.
